HLM Pro – One screen. Every barn. Total control over your light.
Modern livestock farming increasingly runs on dynamic lighting programs: multiple light groups, shifting colours, smooth transitions between day and night. But every added feature brings added complexity for the farmer. The HLM Pro (HATO Light Manager Pro) solves that with a single, intuitive light computer that makes advanced barn lighting as simple as the thermostat on your wall at home.
Lighting programs are built visually, planned weeks in advance, and copied to the next barn in just a few clicks. No doing the same job twice. No differences between sections. No installation time that balloons with every extra location. Whether a farm runs two barns or twenty, the lighting environment is identical everywhere, and always under control.
The HLM Pro is built to grow with you. The system drives new technologies like CORAX CoreCall right out of the gate and gains new features through updates, with nothing to replace. What you install today will support tomorrow’s generation of smart-farming applications, on the very same hardware.
For the animal, that means calm. Smooth, flicker-free light transitions support a stable day-and-night rhythm, reducing stress and benefiting both welfare and performance. For the farmer, it means peace of mind. One place for all light control, predictable behaviour, and a system that won’t be outdated the moment the next innovation hits the market.
With the HLM Pro, HATO Lighting, a global pioneer in animal lighting since 1974 and engineered in the Netherlands, proves that smart technology doesn’t have to add complexity. It can take it away.
CORAX CoreCall – Four light colours. Two wires. Zero compromises.
In an era of rising copper prices, a shortage of skilled installers, and farmers wanting to push dynamic lighting further than ever, traditional cabling has hit its ceiling. Today, every extra light colour still means an extra wire, extra labour, and extra room for error. CORAX CoreCall breaks that rule.
The technology drives up to four independent light colours through just two wires, carrying both power and digital communication on the same line. That’s a first in the sector, and the results speak for themselves: significantly less copper, shorter installation times, and cabling that can be laid down flawlessly without specialist expertise.
The digital control also delivers something traditional systems simply can’t. Every lamp in the line produces exactly the same light level, from the front of the barn to the back. No light loss at the end of the row. No dark corners where animals start behaving differently. Smoothly dimmable, completely flicker-free, and fully supportive of a stable day-and-night rhythm.
The biggest advantage might be what doesn’t happen when something changes. Want to add an extra light colour next year, or try out a new CORAX concept? It all runs on the same infrastructure. No more rewiring. The barn is already ready for what’s next.
With CORAX CoreCall, HATO Lighting shows exactly where Dutch engineering makes the difference: by helping a sector in which every kilometre of cable counts, well, use less cable. Smarter, leaner, future-proof, and engineered in the Netherlands.
